Since being founded in Los Angeles in 2002, Baggins has carved a niche out for itself in the jewelry industry as a provider of innovative top quality Akoya, South Sea, and Tahitian Cultured Pearl products. By founding this company, Anil Maloo has built an environment where those who share his passion for pearls are given free rein to create designs that will further accentuate the intrinsic beauty of these gemstones.
Pearls have always been a passion for Anil Maloo, founder and owner of Baggins. Anil is the eldest grandson of Shikharchand Chodhry, founder of Orient Pearl and La Perle D’ Orient. His extensive knowledge in gemstones, precious stones, pearls, pearl farming, and jewelry making has turned heads as he comes up inspiring new designs with gem quality pearls.
